River of Dreams (Live)

On a dark December morning when the sun refused to shine
I spent another sleepless night, got so much on my mind
Think I finally know what's wrong
I think I've gotta leave this place behind

So I said wake up, Linda, I've had a dream
I dreamed we moved away from here to a place I'd never seen
Where the nights were long and cold
Air was fresh and clean

And there we were standing underneath the western sky
Beside a home we built ourselves way up in the mountains high
And we lived happy there, just you and I
On a river of dreams

There's no need to worry now 'cause I've got a plan
We don't need this modern world, I'm not a modern man
We're gonna get ourselves off these city streets
We're gonna get back on the land, oh-oh

There's a whole lot of people out there
Feel just like you and me
They'd love to pack their leavin' trucks
And say goodbye to all their misery
What'd ya say we pack up that Camaro, honey?
And chase the sun until we're free

And if I could, I'd lift you up on angel wings
We'd fly away and never worry about a thing
We'd know the joy and riches a simple life can bring
On a river of dreams
On a river of dreams

You get your things together now, I'll be getting mine
I've finally got the feeling, girl, the sun is gonna shine
You know people don't run out of dreams
People just run out of time

Let's find that place out there underneath the western sky
We'll build a home ourselves way up in the mountains high
We'll live happy there 'til the day we die
On a river of dreams

And we'll have stars to wish on every single night
We'll build a fire and make love by candlelight
We'll do our moon dance 'til we get it right
On a river of dreams
On a river of dreams

Roll on, baby
Roll on, baby
I can see us standing by the river
Holding hands beside the river

This is my little deal for the Reverend Al Green
This is called True Love
